Alright man, I'll check them both out.

Edit: Which album has the best solos with a good abundance of them?

Best: The Wall - Comfortably Numb

Most: Wish You Were Here probs...Shine on you Crazy Diamond is mostly guitar soloing more or less

Davide Gilmour - Shut Up N Play Yer Guitar o wait

I second Wish You Were Here

one band that can be added to the "power metal" section is dream evil.

Hell yes. Though I'd lump them more with traditional metal.

Animals is an extremely underrated Floyd album.


Also Black Majesty, Hammerfall, Grave Digger, and Stratovarius for some awesome Power Metal.

Sorry,

didn't intend to. My english just isn't perfect so I used some "standard sentences". Mmmh, alright.

I really like [B]Nihiling[/B], a new german band playing progressive rock/metal. I do not know 'em personally and hope I am no fanboy.

I'm just convinced that some of you that like Oceansize, Tool, Opeth might really like to check out their debut album, M[e]iosis. Guitars are great.

I think Grotesque should be added in the Death section even though they are mostly uknown. Also the song above could be a rec for the guy who wanted something dark (it seems quite dark to me at some parts) if that's what you want.

Hey guys -

For any of you Between the Buried and Me fans, do you know of any bands that play music like the soft section of Selkies: The Endless Obsession? Thanks

Al DiMeola's non-latin ****? idk?

I need a good band documentary rec.

i'm stoked the AILD dvd comes out in two weeks!! i recently sold off all my band DVD's but some good ones were

Walk With Me In Hell - LOG
The Dehumanizing Process- Chimaira
Wolves Among Sheep- Bleeding Through

i've been really liking behold... the arctopus and blotted science. i'm not that into spastic ink tho. any suggestions??

You might like Canvas Solaris and Dysrhythmia. And maybe Watchtower but you might not like them.

Anybody got some recomendations for elite melo death bands?

Dark Tranquillity, Arghoslent, Quo Vadis, Autumn Leaves.

I know the first two, will check out the second two.

apophis

I have the oddest urge for relatively modern sounding death metal. Of course there's a catch: I don't mind it sounding disappointingly sweet, but by no means do I want some chug dominated sweep fest. IDK. Just anything you guys think has stood above mediocrity.

have you already listened to the new ulcerate?

nope.

is it bad tech/brutal metal?

to be honest i dont know how to describe it its just ****in awesome, really atmospheric

people say deathspell omega + gorguts + immolation + post-rock + some other bands or something

whats Aborted's best album??

cuz i got their 2001 disc today

How about Korog? They aren't top notch but since you said "anything you guys think has stood above mediocrity".

Best Death Metal albums so far this year (kind of in order):

Ulcerate – Everything is Fire (idk)
Fleshgod Apocalypse – Oracles (technical brutal classical)
Despondency - Revelation IV (Rise of the Nemesis) (technical slamming brutal)
Revolting - Dreadful Pleasures (old school, kinda swedish)
Psoriasis - Lethal Injection (french brutal - kinda like gorod but not as good)
Tribulation - The Horror (old school)
General Surgery - Corpus in Extremis: Analysing Necrocriticism (goregrind)
Egemony - Baptism of the Unborn (italian brutal)
Fondlecorpse - Creaturegore (old school goregrind)
Centaurus-A - Side Effects Expected (german technical)
Trepalium - XIII (french jazzy groovy technical)

take ur pick i guess, ulcerate is well above the rest though

IMO Aborted's best was [I]Goremaggedon,[/I] followed by [I]The Archaic Abbatoir [/I]and their recent stuff was kinda lame.

Cocaine: Have you heard the new Obscura? also Hacksaw To The Throat is pretty sick

ill check both out, i havent heard obscura but i remember thinking HTTT were just okay

Wastlands is better than Tear My Eyes Out when it comes to HTTT but they are both damn good

Abominat. No full length or anything...just Myspace them...awesome Suffo worship.

Ulcerate - Of Fracture And Failure (there's a new one out but I haven't heard it)

Obscura - Cosmogenesis

Hacksaw To The Throat - Wastelands

Gory Blister - Skymorphosis (more of an old school sound however)

no to gory blister, if iw anted to hear a band try and sound like death i'd listen to death

[QUOTE=Cocaine;17154099]nope.

its like immolation with post-metal influences

listen to the new one its better than the old, not saying the older one is bad

Ulcerate rule.

Get some Nominon, tyler.

Hacksaw To The Throat are amazing!

[quote=Cocaine]Kind of an open-ended request, but can anyone recommend me really dark sounding music, does not have to be metal-based. Looking for stuff with identifiable song structures, meaning traditional frameworks. Maybe something with folk, pop or electronic touches.[/quote]
Die Verbannten Kinder Evas - Dusk and Void Become Alive

And I wouldn't waste my time with Obscura if I were you. You'd definitely like Tribulation though.

i have a craving for something extremely ****ing heavy
halp guise

define heavy?

i dunno how to define it.

Look no further than Narjahanam.
